"Purple People Eater" Hook covers Sheb Wooley

[Hook]

This tune was #1 in 1958.
 I started this last Thursday and am just now finishing it, boy I've had no time at all recently . This was done all over the place, in a kitchen (not mine), in the car, on my couch & in my studio. Just a silly song for spacefest and for the season. It's all done on the MBR off of a live stereo track of guitar & voice so there is no raising just the lead vocal but I'm cool with the level.
1(stereo) guitar/vocal- live
1- minty coin drum
1- jembe lower bass drum (thumbjam)
2- bass tracks (TJ)
1- TJuno VCF (spacy sound TJ)
1- tenor sax (TJ)
2- background vocals

Wow... I remember I used to listen to this when I was a little one... We used to sing this on our road trips in the car with my sisters... Fun times when we weren't picking on each other. Great job hook...

[DeificDave]

Great version, top class vocal, sounds like you had fun with this one 

[64Guitars]

Nice cover of a fun song. This would have been a good one for the Comedy/Novelty/Parody Fest.

Purple on!

Boy Hook...you really took me back with this one! i was 8 and kooky songs like this were the rage...

Good take on it...sounds like ya had fun in the process. Did kids in the 50's have more fun than the kids of today? I think maybe so...

What's next? Ally -Oop? Monster Mash? The Bird? I bet you could nail 'em! Nice job
